A CONNECTICUT FARMERS DISCOv.
FRY
New York Sun.

The most successful farmer in Con.
necticut to-day was a laboring man
at 81 day not many years ago. lie
is now well TODD He learned while
at work as farm hand that on Con
necticut soil manure properly APP
piled is absolutely essential for a
crop. Then he began to experiment
with manures. 70 day he raises ten
bushels of corn to the acre where his
most industrious farmers raise one.
Every inch of his soil pays him, and
he makes more money farming in
Connecticut than he could begin to
do with the same investment in the
west His fruit commands the highest
price. Why? Because he used the
obseryant eye in his orchards.
He saw some years ago that a peach
and an apple tree into which some
nails had been driven hourished and
bore beyond all comparison with the
rest of the orchard. That set him to
thinking. 1t must be due to the
nails h. thought. Nails are iron.
Trees need iron as much as human
beings do, he reflected. The iron in
the soil is exhausted probably, he
reasons. Thereupon he went to some
of the large boundaries and black
smith shops and bought all the oxo-
died iron flakes that fall from iron
when it is being treated on the anvil.
These he trenched about the trees
and now and then he drives spike
into an apple or peach tree. His
crops are good, and he receives all
that he asks for his apples, pears and
peaches

FARM AND STOCK NOTES.

Don't waste food on cows unable to
make a decent return.
Ifyou want the flow of milk to
keep up, always milk clean.
If you starye your hens you will
will not fatten your egg basket.
The quality of food has much to do
with the quality OF milk.
Turkeys are profitable birds to
raise, for they are marketable, to
some extent, at fair prices through
out the year.
Manure from the hen house is the
best fertilizer usually produced on
farm-equal to much Of the CONNER
cial guano.
Many farmers swamp themselves
by hiring more labor than they can
proftably employ, but more lose
money by not employing intelligent
labor to stimulate the production Of
their farms.
Manurng corn with commercial
fertilizers furnishes corn for use a
week or ten days earlier than where
stable manure alone is used. This
good result is effected by mixing
them if desired.
Young stock, once allowed to run
down, never fully recover from the
effects thereof OF inferior feed and
lice the first generally brings the
second. Poor feeding is scandalous :;
vermin added, it is brutal
Stable manure sho be protected
from the weather. Exposed, as it
often is in the open yard, it is
soaked by the rains and baked by the
sun, and its own fermentation burns
up that which the weather does not
reach. Barns with good cellars un-
der the stables can be best arranged
for the proper care of manure, es-
pecially the liquid portion. Where
cellars are not, low pools in the barn
yard should be provided.
No class of cattle has met with
greater favor in the South than the
Jersey. Southern farmers are not
likely to become producers of beef,
but milk and butter are necessary
everywhere, and for these for family
use the Jersey is unexcelled. Jer-
sey cows are natives of a milder eli
mate than our NortherIPw winter, and
in the sunny South the fact that
their butter is of finer texture than
that from other COWS is no inconsid-
cradle advantage.
Small farms pay better, as gener-
al rule, than large ones. Instead OF
planting forty acres in cotton, plant
ten, and expend half the amount it
would cost to cultivate the extra
thirty acres in fertilizers for your ten
acre patch, and you will make more
cotton, at about one-third the OK
| pense, than your for ty acres would
have made you.
Always thoroughly wash the nd
ders, wipe with towel and milk
with dry hands. 1t is very impor-
tant to do SO if gilt edge" butter be
desired. The mixer cannot be too
careful. 1t is claimed that the
milk receives more odors and impur-
tiles before it leaves the stable than
from any other source.
1t would not be out OF place il
farmers would put their names over
their gates, in order to assist those
seeking particular residences The
plan is as applicable in the country
as in the city. Even the farms along
road could be numbered from one
town to another.
